The elegant private entry and reception area opens to a large entertainment and lounge area featuring a pool table.

Our home is nestled in a quiet and residential area, offering a peaceful retreat after a day of exploring San Francisco’s vibrant neighborhoods.

Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Rachel S. 13 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy What a fun castle. The four of us had plenty of room to relax after our fun filled days of exploring SF. The views were spectacular and exploring the backyard was an incredible part of our trip. The neighborhood felt safe and there was a market to get convenience items right down the street. Pier 39 takes about 30 min to get to. Golden Gate Park took about 30 min. Took about an hour to get to the zoo. Lyfts were extremely easy and grubhub delievered excellent Italian food that was closeby. ##### Rachel S. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kristianna G. 26 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, location Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy Accommodations were spacious. The large dining table and the pool table were really nice to have, and the location was perfect for our needs. Complimentary tea was a nice touch. The owner was friendly and mostly kept to himself. Guests should be aware that the stairway connecting the owner’s living space with the guest living space has NO DOOR. That is NOT stated in the listing. I pointed this out to Hostwell and Kevin emphatically denied this, quoting the listing back to me and stating that this was exactly what it said. Unfortunately, this is simply not true. It stated they are connected, but didn’t mention the lack of a door much less a lock. Hopefully they will amend the listing for future guests. We were also surprised to discover there were push button code locks on the bedroom doors, which was not mentioned in the listing. I did not receive the codes in the check-in information, but had to send a message to Hostwell requesting the codes. They took a little time responding because it was after regular hours, which is understandable, but inconvenient for us and could have been avoided by providing the codes in the first place. Overall, my interactions with Hostwell were frustrating. Their lack of transparency, argumentative attitude and inability to communicate effectively were disappointing. ##### Kristianna G.
